Roads, transit and education are some of the sectors that will get funding from the $1.5 billion federal spending bill
San Diego’s Congressional delegation and other lawmakers secured $107 million for local community projects and $127 million for local military and veteran projects as part of the massive federal spending bill federal lawmakers passed last week, officials announced.
Camp Pendleton will receive $20 million for a new communications center and $13.6 million for a veterinary treatment center to treat military service dogs and pets of the military community.Among the local community projects it will fund are traffic improvements, coastline stabilization, a homeless shelter and other upgrades.
“Year in and year out we have parts of the rail corridor that need help,” Levin said. “My hope is that we will have a longer term fix ... Longer term, we’re trying to help them with the funding necessary to complete the environmental review to remove part of the tracks off the coast.” Another $2.25 million will cover a 50-bed homeless shelter at a former high school in Oceanside. The shelter will enable participants to stay onsite during the day to receive assistance with permanent housing, income and healthcare.
Rep. Scott Peters office announced awards of $1 million to the San Diego Association of Government’s Coaster commuter rail study to explore plans to move the tracks off the Del Mar Bluffs. Another $1 million each will go to upgrade Poway’s Clearwell water storage reservoir and secure Harbor Island’s shoreline.
